Alberta magazines cleaned house at the Western Magazine Awards last week in BC (no surprise to us). Even better, they are also recognized on a national level, garnering some notable wins at the National Magazine awards. We already knew Alberta had some crazy talented folks. The awards just confirm that. Congratulations to all!Western Magazine Awards
